The Chess-Players' Manual: Containing the Laws of the Game According to the Revised Code Laid Down by the British Chess Association in 1862 (Classic Reprint) - Softcover
Excerpt from The Chess-Players' Manual: Containing the Laws of the Game According to the Revised Code Laid Down by the British Chess Association in 1862
Games of the Congress, and Morphy's Games (bohn's and Max Lange's editions) The Westminster Papers, with the valuable analyses and notes by Messrs. Wisker and Zukertort, Freti's Strategie Raisonnée, La Nouvelle Régence, and the transactions of the British Chess Association, 1866 - 69, etc. Etc. The other authorities whom I have chiefly consulted are Jaenisch, Vfalker, Sarratt, Lewis, Philidor, the Schaehzeitung, and the Handbuch. I may es pecially direct the attention of my readers to my analysis of the Two Knights' Defence, the Allgaier, and Evans' Gambits, with the new modes of strengthening the defence to the Giuoco Piano, and the now popular Vienna Game. In the Evans Gambit will be found the three pawns' defence, so much favoured of late years by Anderssen and Zukertort, an analysis of the new defence of Q to K B 3, originated by Mr. E Lewis, and also an ingenious attack by Mr. P. Richardson, of New York, which appears to give the first player a decided advantage.
